The biggest advantage of this book is its concise writing style and fast-paced plot. Some imperial examination novels might have many filler chapters, but this one is only 400,000 words long, and it covers everything that needs to be covered. Of course, there are still quite a few flaws, and the court politics plot becomes a bit unrealistic later on; perhaps the author couldn't continue writing it.
It's pretty good. Although the male lead is a time traveler with knowledge from the future, which he later uses in court affairs, it's not overly exaggerated or outrageous overall. The female lead's later revelation of her true identity does provide some assistance to the male lead. Personally, I feel that this setup is a little less engaging, but it's not a major issue.
Opening a shop makes one a merchant. The social classes of scholars, farmers, artisans, and merchants were clearly defined. In some ancient dynasties, merchants were ineligible for the imperial examinations. Scholars and officials could co-rule the country with the emperor, and the gentry were superior to other classes, looking down on merchants.
I genuinely think this is a great book. The male protagonist has a very clear view on love, vowing to hold hands and love each other for a lifetime. The female protagonist is also a very lovely and unique woman.
I personally think this is a really good book, definitely worth reading!
It's visually appealing, simple, and easy to read; it's definitely worth checking out. It would be even better if the scientific expedition part were described in more detail.
It's quite good, with a tight writing style and no unnecessary padding to reach a certain word count that would annoy the reader.
Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful! I can't stress this enough. Highly recommended!
Overall, it's not bad, but sometimes the transitions aren't smooth enough. Perhaps the author intended to create suspense, but didn't execute it well. Overall, it's good.
A very good novel
